The main residency match just opened for applications so ERAS has 40,000 people trying to access the website all at once. It should quiet down in the next few days.
 
University of Georgia Regnets rejection-position was filled
 
Rejection from LSU Shreveport-filling their one spot with just the one group of interviewees already interviewed.

How does that work? They took an internal candidate or something?
 
When can you start ranking programs? How do you rank programs for fellowship? Endocrinology is not listed in SMS. I was told that we could start ranking about 2 weeks ago but I do not know how. Please help!
